Sunday Read: My Summer Uniform
by
What does your summer uniform consist of this year? I hadn’t really thought about having a regular summer outfit but when I was approached with the question by my sister, I started to realize that my dressing habits have been fairly consistent this year.
In this week’s Sunday Read, I take you through some of my most-worn items of the summer. While this summer has surely skewed dadcore over pretty much any other aesthetic, that’s been quite alright with me.
Nantucket Summer '88 Dead Hat — I don't wear hats all that often but I always like to decide on one hat to be The Hat for the summer. This year's is a Grateful Dead-inspired Nantucket '88 hat by Mike Gracie. It's embroidered on an Adams dad cap (my favorite brand) and the washed out red feels very nostalgic. (Link)
AYR Cool Wool Shirt — This is probably the most practical and impressive button down shirt I've ever worn. I love the green color, it's incredibly light and breathable despite the wool, it doesn't wrinkle in a suitcase, and it's (shockingly) machine washable. While you are paying a premium, I've brought this shirt on vacation with me and worn it 3+ times with it looking new and smelling fine. I truly love it. (Link)

it’s not ready, here I’ll sit,
